Set Up and Shave

After a hard day of work, who wouldn't want to shave their head bald? Suuuuuure...

The Newsboys set up their own equipment for their next concert as "Love Comes True" plays in the background. Here Duncan carefully assembles Peter's drum kit. I wonder if Duncan had any idea he'd be the drummer in just a few years.


Not that you can see it in this picture, but Jody is restringing a guitar.
The slightly scary-looking Kevin Mills. Now Peter takes a turn, making sure the drums are just right.


John testing out the mic... Which I suppose is rather obvious, but for some reason I feel this compulsion to label each picture.


Prayer huddle.
And now...

Peter (off-screen, on the phone with someone): John James has got no hair at the moment. He's, uh, he's he's thinking of going on TV and being a spokesperson for, like, Hair Club for Men or something.

(That's Vesna, by the way. John's wife. I don't know who the girl is. I don't think it's their daughter though...]


Peter: He ain't got much hair on his head, but he likes it and he looks good and he still loves Jesus, so I guess that's all that counts.

[Sounds unsure and vaguely disapproving for a guy who'll be taking a razor to his own scalp in just a few years...]


John: Yeah! It's hairspray. If you want hair like this, I've been using this special Helsinki formula...

John: ...spraying it on my head during a treatment of six months.

John: And look at the result! Hair Club for Men.

Peter: We used to call him Eight Ball.
